Excellent location!! The hotel is in the middle of City Walk, just a minute away from the USJ gate. Room was very clean with nice city view. Hotel staff was very friendly. Breakfast buffet was great with options for Washoku (Japanese style), Yoshoku (Western style) and kids meal. Will definitely stay again!

This hotel is the nearest one to USJ, just a few mins walk. There are plenty of restaurants and convenience stores around, and is also accessible to anywhere in Osaka. Highly recommended, as this is the only hotel with smoking rooms as well.
